Is Georgia Part of the New
south?

An Atlanta correspond Mt of the New York
Tribune throws some light upon bill now
before the Georgia legislature, with, 1t IL re-
ported. an excellent prospect not only OF
enactment but of approval by the Governor,
which makes it misdemeanor, punishable
with fine and Imprisonment, for any school
conducted tor the education of colored people
to receive as pupil any white person, or for
school conducted for the education of whites
to receive colored pupils. The state of affairs
which has led to the introduction of the bill
is as follows; The Atlanta University, which
was established by the American Missionary
Association, has cost that association in
money put into buildings and into teachers
salaries not less than S350,000. Northern
contributors are at the present time putting
into it not less than Sl0,0 year. 1t has
been made a model school. Established for
the education of colored youth, there have
been a few white pupils, all, with one excep-
tion-that child of missionary of the
association children of the professors. In
the distribution of a national grant of public
lands tor education in the several States,
Georgia received S270.0O0 scrip, the income
Of winch is something over SIG 900 year.
This was appropriated, every cent of it. to the
White State University at Atlanta. Fearful,
however, that the injustice of this might be
inquired into. the State legislature sub,e
quently appropriated $1,000 for the education
OF the cnlorea youth of the State. The At
lsnta University asked that il might receive
= part. At least. of this appropriation. The
legislature app )jnted . committee to investl-
gate. which made the discovery that there
we're few white pupils in the university. 1t
omitted in its report, TO mention that these
pupils were there because. As children of
niger teachers" they would have been in
white schools insulted and ostrscised. This
terrible discovery has led to the Introduction
If chs bill declaring mixed schools unaw full.
The penalty for the violation OF Its provisions
is as we have said imprisonment, and i'm
prIspnment in &c rgis is the chain gang of
the leased convict system. 1t is possible that
the aroused public sentiment of the nation
may force the legislature to drop this shame
full. bsrbarous measure, but nothing short u
this will This ia the Empire State of the
South-the New South which Editor Grady
SO eloquently described last FOrefathers day
in New York, about which so much gu,h and
sentiment have beea spoken and written. TIE
question cannot help suggesting itself. sheth-
er little less of hoastful sentiment and q
little more of civilized humanity would not
become the much-tslktd-ot New South
Trareiisr.
